Shooting was fairly quick due to the fact I wanted to finish it as soon as possible so I could get feedback. I used the audio clips, imported into Dragonframe, in order to sync up the action to the words. I had never animated in this way before, but it felt very easy to pick up on. It was much quicker than using a dope sheet, especially since I wasn't doing any lip sync work.
Part of the edit was making sure to include subtitles, as I took from feedback from the audio that it was pretty unclear what was being said all the time, as it was natural conversation. Especially with the party, this was necessary, as there are a lot of other loud sounds going on at the same time.
It was a challenge trying to work out what was being said all the time during the conversations. I tried to layer the subtitles to reflect many conversations going on at once. I also colour graded the shots to make them feel more atmospheric, including adding changing colours during the party.
My final film is here, and I will put it online to be shared and reflected upon with a survey.
